Type imports are broken

[SebTVisage]

Hi.

Problem:
If I run prettier with the plugin on the file containing this import:

import {
  type DELAYED_TASK_NAME, // This is badly interpreted by the plugin
  DelayedTasksService,
  PendingTask,
} from '../domain/delayed-tasks-service.interface';

It gets transformed into:

import {
  DELAYED_TASK_NAME,
  DelayedTasksService,
  PendingTask,
  type, // keyword `type` is handled like an imported member
} from '../domain/delayed-tasks-service.interface';

Which is breaking TS.

Context:
I'm using this plugin v0.0.7 with import-sort-style-module v6.0.0. Here's my config file

{
  ".js, .jsx, .es6, .es, .mjs, .ts, .tsx": {
    "parser": "typescript",
    "style": "module"
  }
}

Workaround
I can fix it by manually changing the code above to:

import {
  DelayedTasksService,
  PendingTask,
} from '../domain/delayed-tasks-service.interface';
import type { DELAYED_TASK_NAME } from '../domain/delayed-tasks-service.interface';

But that's annoying. And using the original syntax can create errors if we do not notice prettier's changes

This may be an issue with the upstream sort-import. It seems completely dead though, compared to issues being replied to in this repository. Is the project unmaintained?

I don't know if this project is maintained anymore; I found a workaround to the issue by disabling TypeScript > Preferences: Prefer Type Only Auto Imports in VS Code settings; it won't add type for auto-imports, but when Prettier formats the imports, it does add a type-only import on its own line.
